Chapter 1: The Village of Boshka

Next Chapter

The night of the rainstorm was a bit unfamiliar to the village. The perennially arid village of Boshka rarely receives such heavy rains, which should have been celebrated, but now it is a silent late night.

On the outskirts of the village, there is a church-like building, but it is not a place of pilgrimage, but an orphanage for the village. Every year, newborn children are abandoned in this relatively rich village and town, and setting up an orphanage saves many people trouble.

The children in the orphanage have gone to bed early, waiting for the next day if someone will come to adopt them. There are only two people who haven't slept yet, one is the weakest child in the orphanage, Ranqi, and the other is the most honest child, Rare.

Although the two were awake, they did not dare to use the oil lamp at the head of the bed. The old director of the orphanage has always felt that this facility is a waste of money in the village, so he has been reducing the cost of the orphanage. As for the money sent by the lord, the extra part naturally went into his pocket.

The two looked at the torrential rain outside, which was one of the few scenes. The rain flowers are illuminated by the white lamp outside the window, and they become crystal clear, as if they were diamonds.

"It's so pretty. ”

Dye Qi said to Rare next to him, the two of them were not much apart, at best there was only enough for one person to pass.

"It's been a long time since it rained in our village, is this a gift from Hao?"

Riel also looked innocently at the rain outside the window, praising the creation god sung in the hymn. He didn't know if this person really existed, but there must have been a reason for what everyone believed.

"Whew, whew. "There was footsteps outside the door, and someone was running in the rain. The sound of splashing is more noticeable at night.

"It's nice to be able to play outside at night. ”

For Dye Qi and Riel, leaving the orphanage is like having fun. They have a regular time to go out every day, but then again, it's only a dozen minutes.

"Plop!" heard louder than footsteps, and Dye Qi and Riel crept up the edge of the bed to the windowsill.

The beds had been bought by the Dean from the scrap market, and they were old and squeaky even if they were turned around normally.

The two climbed up to the windowsill and made a lot of noise, but fortunately everyone fell asleep.

Dye Qi followed the light and looked out the window and saw a little boy lying in the doorway of the orphanage, as if the sound was made by him falling.

"Wow, what a terrible fall!"

Riel sighed when he saw the miserable scene outside.

Dye Qi also thinks so, but he knows that if he just falls, it won't be long before he can get back on his feet.

However, the boy outside the door did not get up for a long time, as if he had slept in a shallow puddle, motionless. The two of them couldn't help but be worried.

"It's not like I'm asleep. ”

Dye Qi and Riel couldn't see the boy on the other side of the rain.

"Let's go check it out!"

Dye Qi jumped to the ground first.

Although Riel also wanted to leave immediately, the distance between the two beds was too narrow, so he could only get out of bed until Dye Qi put on his shoes first.

Dye Qi didn't wait for Riel, put on his shoes and ran straight out of the house. Although the orphanage has a curfew rule, if no one is awake, this rule is just a letter.

Riel didn't complain about anything, he knew that Dye Qi was this kind of character.

Ran Qi, who had already run out of the door, came to knock on the door and saw the boy who had fallen.

The boy had blonde hair, and his face was as smooth and round as pebbles, not like a civilian like Dye Qi could maintain.

The boy was dressed in a white robe with gold rim, and Dye Qi knew that the clothes with gold rimmed were worn only by nobles. However, because of the fall, the originally beautiful clothes were stained with mud and a little embarrassed.

"It's incredible!"

Riel was a little surprised when he saw the boy's clothes, he didn't expect the boy to be a descendant of a nobleman.

"There must be a lot of people looking for him right now. ”

Dye Qi knew in his heart that the children of the nobles would not stay up all night, and it was estimated that countless people had already been dispatched to find this boy.

"So, what are we going to do?"

Although Riel asked, his body had already resisted the boy, and no matter whether anyone was looking for him or not, he couldn't let him get wet in the rain anymore.

Dye Qi also helped, and the two worked together to bring the boy back to the orphanage.

Closing the old door of the orphanage, the sound of metal grinding can be heard, making the already eerie orphanage even more unpredictable. But Dye Qi and Riel are used to it.

The three people who returned to the house were already soaking wet and shivering. Dye Qi touched the boy's forehead and soon noticed that his body temperature was too low.

"It's so ice. ”

Dye Qi withdrew his hand and took two breaths of hot air.

Riel could also see that the boy was not in a good state, but if he recklessly brought someone who didn't belong here to the bedroom, he would definitely make Dean Asilio angry.

"I'll go talk to Dean Asirio. ”

Dye Qi volunteered, he knew that the dean didn't like him. To be honest, he doesn't like anyone here, but he doesn't like him more than he does, and what he says is nothing more than more dislike.

And Dye Qi knew that the dean was a mercenary person, as long as he told him that he was saving a nobleman, he would definitely agree.

"Then I'll take him away first. ”

"Good. ”

After a brief conversation, the two set off, with Riel leading the boy to the bedroom, and Dye Qi knocking on the door of the dean, Asilio's room.

"Do you know what time it is?"

As expected, Asilio looked disdainful of Dye Qi as soon as he opened the aspect, yawning and scolding.

"You little bunny knows how to mess with me, and if you do that, you'll be thrown out of the orphanage. ”

He had heard this countless times, but it was Charles Shenghua who decided whether he could stay or not, the lord of Boshka Village and one of the strongest Templars.

In the Arransrida Empire, nobles and high knights had their own domains, ranging from towns to villages. But both towns and villages must obey the orders of their lords, that is, nobles and high knights.

If someone decided that something that was not under their control would be reported, they would be arrested and imprisoned by the lord's men.

Although Asilio is the director of the orphanage, he is just an old man hired to watch the children, and he has not yet decided the right to stay with the children.

"We rescued a boy. ”

Dye Qi said and pointed to the bedroom.

"We brought him back. ”

When Asilio heard this, he couldn't sit still, grabbed Dyer's collar and shouted:

"Bastard, this is an orphanage, not your home. ”

Although in the name of the orphanage, Dye Qi knew that he was just afraid that the rescued child would make him less greedy, after all, one more person would have one more mouth.

"It's a nobleman. ”

Dye Qi knew that if he said that, Asilio would definitely agree to them taking the child in.

"Aristocrats?"

"Yes. ”

"Take me to see, if not, you know the consequences. ”

Although he was let go of cruel words, Dye Qi was not afraid of accidents, because at most, he was beaten by this dissatisfied old man, and this kind of thing could not be counted since he could remember.

Dye Qi led Asilio to the bedroom.

The bedrooms were dilapidated, many places had been cleaned up and the roof was full of washbasins that were leaking from the rain, but the washbasins were also dilapidated, and a lot of water leaked to the floor.

"Dean. ”

Riel got up and walked over to Asilio.

"That's what you call a nobleman?"

Asilio reached out and stroked the boy's hair and face at random. Then he looked at the boy's clothes, indeed, this is a fabric and color that only nobles can afford, and even he has only one.

"Looks like a nobleman. ”

Asilio suppressed the joy in his heart and picked up the heir of the nobleman, so that when someone came to him, he could knock on the nobleman fiercely.

He covered the boy with a quilt for the first time, although the quilt was still the tattered quilt that dyed Qiqi.

"Take care of him and don't let him run around until anyone comes looking for him. ”

Dye Qi knew that the reason why Asilio said this was just to make another profit. But it's true that he can't be let go, and if he is held accountable later, he will bear the brunt.

"I don't want to be a wicked person. ”

Arsilio leaves the bedroom and begins to complain to Riel.

"I don't want to. ”

Riel didn't want to, but it was a last resort.

The two slept in Riel's bed, which was worn out and discarded, but there was also a size, and in the orphanage, the easiest way to tell the difference was the size of the body.

Riel is one of the taller boys in the orphanage, and his bed is naturally much bigger than Dyer's.

"Do you think he's the kid of that nobleman?"

Dye Qi asked first.

"I don't know, but I don't know if I'm dressed like a nobleman in the village. ”

"So he's from the big city?"

"It's possible, but I'm afraid the nearest town to us is more than a hundred kilometers away. ”

"The closest to us seems to be the city of Markar Xia. ”

Makarxia was an important town in the western part of the Aranslida Empire, and can be said to be the royal capital of the west. It was not the emperor who ruled him, but the nobles under the emperor, the Mawar clan.

Dye Qi and Riel felt that the child sleeping next to them should be the child of the Marwar clan.

The two did not think deeply, for the child, as long as the fantasy at this stage is satisfied, it is enough.

"Tomorrow get up and ask him. ”

"Good. ”

The two looked at the boy sleeping next to them, the child of the Marval family would tell him what he hadn't heard, and Dye Qi fell asleep peacefully.

Tomorrow will be another sunny day.
